Who remember CDs that Canonical used to ship for free when they start Ubuntu? I did order them and gave them away to friends to try out. Did you? #Ubuntu #cdrom #Linux https://lazybear.io/notes/who-remember-ubuntu-cds/

@hyde I still remember burning the Ubuntu iso to mail to people who didn't have an internet connection or weren't able to get the latest version.

@hyde pretty awesome time, I did not order the box, but almost every pc shop I knew had those boxes on their checkout counter, ready to take out a cd by anybody who wanted one.

@hyde Yes, not only I ordered the #Ubuntu CD but also I organised an install party in an high school. I think I'm getting old!

@hyde I also remember having an unofficial CD with codecs and stuff not included on the main CD.. for something like version 5.04 (I think that was my first Ubuntu)
